How Troll Warlord and Undying perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Troll Warlord and Undying win 54.12% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 4,444 matches.
Putting these two heroes on the same team is a bet on winning a chaotic, physical teamfight. Undying's job is to drop a Tombstone and make it impossible for enemies to move freely. The constant slows from his zombies and the Flesh Golem give Troll Warlord the setup he needs. Troll wants to stay on a single target to build up attack speed, and Undying's crowd control makes that much easier. The strength drain from Decay also helps soften up key heroes, making them easier for Troll to bring down during Battle Trance.
In a good fight, the enemy team is forced to split their attention between killing the Tombstone and dealing with a rampaging Troll Warlord. However, this plan can fall apart. If the enemy team has strong area-of-effect spells, they can clear the zombies and the tomb quickly, leaving Troll without his setup. A well-timed stun or disengage can also leave Troll Warlord's ultimate hitting an undesirable target, wasting the fight's momentum. This makes their combined success conditional on good positioning and the enemy's draft.
